Tanks for breeding
What are folks using to accomdate the breeding and separation of Koi from their pond population? I am looking for several tanks 100 plus gallons and could use some advice or ideas as to what others are using.

Re: Tanks for breeding
try bottle carriers that you find in pubs or clubs or small trolley skips that you see out side shops. They all have wheels on for moving about all different sizes best of luck

Re: Tanks for breeding
Thanks for the tip!

I Googled "bottle carriers" and got 274,000 hits. The first 2 pages were all for small water bottles and the like. Does it have another name? or perhaps a manufacturer's name?

This is along the line I was thinking, I see these used for recycling paper at work. Maybe I'll try to find a name on them.
